Queries :: How To Consolidate Multiple Variances Using A Query
Aug 29, 2013
I have 3 tables of data, where I want to cross reference information to produce exception reports.
The tables all have Employee number held within them, and these form the basis of my queries.
We want to be able to cross reference locally held staffing information with centrally held HR and payroll records.
The type of information we want to be able to check, is if the hours of the individual are the same in all 3 records, the grade they are being paid for, the cost centre, and that the names match.
Currently we run separate queries for all of these, and I want to be able to consolidate the exceptions in one report, to save looking at the same persons record more than once.
For example, if John Smith has a different name, grade and cost centre are all different - we may be accessing his record 6 times, once for each variance against payroll and HR records.
Is there a way that I can pull all this information together to speed up the reconciliation process?

Each month I get the previous months data. In that data, I have a list of names that have duplicates in them. Some of the names have last, first middle. Some have just last, first. I want to combine the like names and leave the unlike names not combined.

In order to find the most recent piece of data for a particular customer I need to query my table in 3 iterations.
I have a TABLE with data in it pertaining to all customers.
QUERY 1 orders all the records in TABLE by date.
QUERY 2 plucks all records related to specified customer from QUERY 1.
QUERY 3 selects the TOP 1 from QUERY 2.
My main concern is that this all happens automatically. Can I shorten this process at all?

Is there a way, either in a form or report, to modify the format of a text string within a field?
Basically, we are gathering text data using a memo field (due to the amount of data) and would like to highlight sections of the text by making it bold. It does appear that in Access a field is all or nothing in terms of formatting.
Can one put characters that would identify the start or end of such a string in the data itself?
Thanks.

I'm using Access 2003 and excel 2003.
We currently manually run 5 different queries then copy and paste this data into 5 separate tabs on 1 workbook, I'm trying to automate some of this process if possible.
I am trying to use the 'transferspreadsheet' action within a macro to run a query and post it into a template excel file, using this code:
Trasfer Type Export
Spreadsheet Type Excel 8-10
Table Name (query Name)
FIle Name (FIle location)
Has field names No
Range Blank
----
This does seem to work and puts the data on a new tab on the specified workbook.
However I have a few questions:
1. Can you specify which query gets put onto which tab in excel? The tabs have different fixed names.
2. Can you specify which Cell the data gets pasted into to? As each tab has a set of headers and titles which need to remain.i.e would need to get query 1 to start in cell A4.
3. How would you expand the above out so that it runs all 5 queries, would you just add in multiple transfer spreadsheet actions in the same macro?

I have a database that, vaguely looks like the following
NAME Value Category A Value Category B Value Category C
Name A -50 0 0
Name A 0 50 0
Name B -100 0 0
Name B 0 75 10
Name B -25 0 0
Name C -100 0 0
Etc. etc.
What I'd like is to find a query that will first, generate a Category D which should be a total of all the values in the three different categories and consolidates the names to one line. So it should spit something like this out.
NAME Value Category A Value Category B Value Category C Total
Name A -50 50 0 0
Name B -125 75 10 -40
Name C -100 0 0 -100
After this, I'd like to have another query that will only display the values that are NOT zero.
NAME Val Cat A Val Cat B Val Cat C Total
Name B -125 75 10 -40
Name C -100 0 0 -100

I am currently building a db that will handle information on many events around the world. What I would like to do is set a check box that when people scroll through the different records they could check it and it (the current record they are viewing) will go into a compiled list wherein the iindividual record details of that list which the user created by their choices could be exported to an excell sheet (to automate a reporting need in the job) I have seen functions like this in large websites particularly the classified job sections in the seattle Times . where as you scroll through you see something you like you mark it continue scrolling mark another and then when you are all done you go to a page that has all and only your selections.
Can anyone tell me where to start on this one what am I Looking for Etc.
This will be the next big step in this my first database.
All help greatly appreciated

I need to consolidate mailing addresses so that many records are grouped to one invoice based on the address they fall under. I am currently using an update query to change addresses that are similar to match exactly. Is there a way to make it so the addresses group together based on similarities rather than exact matches? For example I have two addresses:
1301 W Johnson Street Phoenix, Arizona 85725
1301 West Johnson St Phoenix, AZ 85725-7201
These are the same property however without cleaning them up manually to match, two invoices will be printed. Is there a way to consolidate these?

I have a few duplicate customer queries (different duplicate fields etc). I would like to construct a form to make it easy for an end user to remove the duplicates.
The main problems are...
1. the newer customer is to be deleted
2. any/all orders from the newer customer will be moved to the older customer before deletion.
3. preferably an easy way to switch between the duplicate queries in the same form, though if this is a problem I could just have one small dialog box/form, linking to 3 different duplicate query/forms.
I think other changes between the customers will be easy enough to just do in the subform, i.e update email address/tel/status/salesperson etc. These can just be edited directly?
But the transferring of orders can't be edited directly because there may be several orders and could be errors etc.
tblCustomers [CustomerNumber] primary key
tblCustomerOrders [OrderNumber] primary key
[CustomerNumber] linking to tblCustomers
So all that needs to be updated is [CustomerNumber] in tblCustomerOrders. All orders for the newer customer to have the CustomerNumber field updated to match the older customer. Then the newer customer is deleted.
I would just have a button with a message box to run the code, update CustomerNumber/s and delete record.

I have a table ("Student Info") that looks like this:
ID....Student.....Student #......Teacher Name......Teacher ID
1........A...............432...............Alice.. .................62
2........B...............674...............Alice.. .................62
3........C...............875...............Alice.. .................62
4........D...............934...............Katie.. ................18
5........E...............345...............Katie.. ................18
6........F...............134...............Dan.... .................4
7........G...............734...............Dan.... .................4
The above table suits me well for data entry.For analysis reasons, I want it to have another table or query or something (let's call it "Teacher Info") that looks like this:
Teacher ID....Teacher Name....St1.....St2......St3...St#1...St#2...St#3
62......................Alice...........A......... B........C.....432.....674.....875
18......................Katie...........D......... E........-.....934.....345......-
4........................Dan............F......... G........-.....134.....734......-
Is there any way that I could do this? I have been struggling with this for a while.Just so you know how this data is connected - At the moment, I have a form where I put in new Teacher information. I have a subform attached to that, where I put the student names and numbers. This way, the students are linked with their student #s, and each of them are linked to a teacher. Unfortunately, the table ("New Teacher Registration") that this creates looks like this:
id....Teacher Name
62...... Alice
(+ tab).........A.........432
...................B.........674
...................C.........875
18.......Katie
(+ tab).........D.........934
...................E.........345
4........Dan
(+ tab).........F.........134
...................G.........734
I created the "Student Info" table (above) from this to work with data entry (drop-downs and such). Now I'd like to create a "Teacher Info" table (above) for analysis.

Table1
Code:
F.Name L.Name Tel.N.
John Smith 12345
Larry Miller 12344
Tony Woods 12333
Table2

I have two true/false check boxes on a form, one for Paid and one for pickedup.
On the query builder I have these two fields listed, and I want the records to show on the form if either box is not checked(false). So in the Query builder, I have False for the paid and false for the pickedup fields in the criteria portion.
However upon running the query, if I click on ethier box, the form will update and will not show the record. I have to have both fields True to update.
In other words it's acting like a "or" instead of a And.
SELECT SO.SOID, Players.FName, Players.LName, SO.Completed, SO.Priority, SO.SODate, Players.PLAYERID, Players.Phone, SD.Service, SO.Paid, SO.Picked_Up, Frames.Frame, SD.Amt_Due, SD.Paid, SD.Exteneded_Price
FROM ((Players INNER JOIN SO ON Players.PLAYERID = SO.PlayerID) INNER JOIN SD ON SO.SOID = SD.SOID) INNER JOIN Frames ON SD.FrameID = Frames.FRAMEID
WHERE (((SO.Completed)=True) AND ((SO.Paid)=False) AND ((SO.Picked_Up)=False));

I have made a database to show me dates that I need to check various documentation from my contractors.
Once a month I want to print out a query/report to tell me what checks need to be made in the following month.
The dates are
Licence Check
Licence Expiry
Van Ins Exp
GIT Expiry
MOT Expiry
Passport Check
Vis Expiry
I need a query table that shows a list of names that have anything to be checked in the month.
So the Column headers would be Name, Surname, Licence Check, Licence Expiry, Van Ins Exp, GIT Expiry, MOT Expiry, Passport Check, Vis Expiry.
Its easy to do a list with one date but when I add multiple dates into the query it looks for names and surnames with the date within the next 30 days for every date and therefor brings back no records.
I have attached the picture. Obviously not all the records will show dates. Some will be blank.

I have a query that I just can't figure out. We are a facility that works on rail cars. We have over 200 cars in house at the moment and the database has a daily production report in it with the status of all of the cars.
I need a query that will pull out the "AAAA" and "XXXX" cars from the list only IF the cleaning field or the mechanical inspection or BOTH fields are blank.

I am looking to modify this query to only show my records that have a "no" answer. I have tried to sort each column by using the Like "no", but that only sorts the first question. Is there a way to get all NOs from all 68 questions in one query to work with trending?The goal is to be able to show what questions are trending with an answer of NO, in Desending order by question. So then I would in theory have a report that shows trending questions with the answer "no" in order of greatest to smallest.

I have a table where and account could have multiple rows with different data like Applied_Date and Trans_Code, and AMOUNT. The AMOUNT in two of the rows will be a positive and a negative and will be zero each other out. I am trying to create a query that will only return the the rows that do not offset each other. Here is an example of my table:
ACCOUNT CODE APPLIED_DATE AMOUNT
292020 M 5/11/2012 ($33.95)
292020 11 5/14/2012 $33.95
292020 A 5/30/2012 ($33.95)

I have a DB where you there's 5 tables all linked together by one project ID
tables below
Project , Staff, Asset, allowances, travel, mark up
What I can do is create a new project, then add records to each of the other tables on what different items I require,
i.e. I create a new project - called project one, in the project table I create a record stating, name, time scale, client and location, then I add different records to each of the other tables on what I require all linked to the same project ID. (probably not explained that too well)
Now I want to create a query that lists all the requirements one after the other this will make it easier to create reports and to calculate costing's.
At the moment I have made 5 different queries listing all the data, then have one report containing 5 sub reports to display the data, no this does work.

Hi All,
I have a approximately 70 queries in my database. I would like to be able to run a query which would run all of the queries and output the number of records for each query. Ideally, these would then be written to a table so that the user could then just read the values from the table for the latest results, rathe r than have to execute the whole thing again.
The user may wish to select which queries to run. I was thinking that I would need a table as follows called say tblQueryResults:
QueryToRun - Yes/No - DateRun - NumberOfRecords
Query1 - Yes - -
Query2 - Yes - -
...
...
...
Query70 - Yes - -
So my first dilema is to work out how to run all the chosen queries that the user wishes to run. The user will probably have all 70 ticked as Yes initially.
Should I run this from VB code with a whole lot of VB statements. I would like to loop through the whole table and collect a list of all the queries to run based on a positive Yes for some or all of the queries. The results must then go and be written into the same table under the date it was run and the number of records that was found for each query.
The whole reason for doing this is that queries which return no records need not be run by the user - saving the user time etc. I appreciate that this query will take a considerable amount of time - given that it could be as many as 70 being run one after another.
Thanks,
Evan
